Skin Cancer - Need Treatments

Posted by wdoldfield on 2012-05-21 18:58:28

Due to sun exposure prior to being 18 years old (so my doctors says) has caused me to have some skin cancer spots on my face and arms. I would like to have them treated, but do not have any additional monies at the end of the month to put toward medical expenses. I am hoping to have these treatments sooner than later so I do not have any tissue loss due to cutting out the cancerous areas. My friend lost a portion of his nose and ears due to skin cancer and I am hoping to avoid the same out come.

TWO sets of TWINS = a MUCH needed tummy tuck!

Posted by FoxxxyIndia on 2012-05-08 01:58:59

Hi...
I'm India... I'm now a student & stay-at-home mom of 6 month old twins. I previously worked as a make-up artist, but due to overwhelmingly high daycare costs i've decided to stay home their first year. I also have a set of six year old twins. Before my 1st set was born I weighed 118 pounds, after weight after they were born stayed a steady 125. So, when I found out I was having a SECOND set I immediately wasn't worried one bit about it because I'd dropped all of the weight before. Well, unfortunately this time it wasn't so easy. The second set left my body a mess. Due to a c-section my doctor told me to not exercise for six weeks. As soon as I got home from the hospital I began dieting. Running twice a day & sit-ups EVERY morning & night. Well, it's been six MONTHS & my stomach is STILL flabby due to loose DEAD skin that will NEVER re-gain it's elasticity. So unless I get the surgery, i'll FOREVER have this pooch. My insurance doesn't cover, obviously because it's cosmetic & I just don't see plastic surgery being in my immediate future. I just want to feel good about myself & look great in my clothes again. For someone who's had a nice body ALL of her life, THIS is NOT ideal. I know this might be a LONG shot, but if you can... PLEASE help! I'll gladly send you pics, if needed.
THANKS

Need to keep my dogs!

Posted by Damifino on 2012-04-29 01:58:24

I was laid off from my job in the mortgage business in 2007. I tried to find a job for four years, while still managing to pay the mortgage from my savings. No jobs in mortgage, and no interest (despite my skills in general office duties) from other types of business. In December of 2010 I ended up in the hospital with a life threatening skin cancer-I hadn't sought medical treatment because of losing my health insurance, but it got to the point that I was taken out of the house on a stretcher. Now my only source of income is SS disability (my sternum was removed in surgery). My house is being foreclosed. There's no way that I can ask for help with keeping the house, it's too much money. But, I need help with being able to find a place to live where I can bring my two dogs. They are rescued German Shepherds. They are both old, and would have no chance of being adopted if I take them to a shelter. Giving up my devoted friends isn't an option, but any place that I can afford on the disability income alone doesn't allow dogs. I spent all my savings keeping my house because I truly believed that I would be able to find a job. I just need some help to get a new home for me, Chance and Bentley until they either are ready to leave and I can go rent a little room, or I can regain enough strength to go back to work.

Please help me LIVE a little bit longer.

Thank You so very much for your help. Heres my story. I am in my early 30s. I am a mother of two loving kids ages 4 and 9. My husband moved out a year ago after a bout of depression, stating "I love you thats why I cant stand to stay here n watch you die like this!" And it is true anyone who has watched a loved one waste away before thier eyes can tell you it eats your soul. In a way I cant blame him. I have hopes we will someday get our family back together. Untill then I am in this alone, and now find my self here asking you for help.
I have several cronic illnesses. Including scoliosis:Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine that occurs most often during the growth spurt just before puberty. While scoliosis can be caused by conditions such as cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy, the cause of most scoliosis is unknown. My scoliosis curve got worse, the spine rotated and twisted, in addition to curving side to side. This caused the ribs on one side of the body to stick out farther than on the other side. Severe scoliosis can caused back pain and difficulty breathing. In my case In severe scoliosis, the rib cage may press against the lungs and heart, making it more difficult to breathe and harder for the heart to pump.I also experience harsh neurological affects of Muscle weakness, Numbness and Abnormal reflexes. To save my life I had to have surgery.
Surgery involves correcting the curve (although not all the way) and fusing the bones in the curve together. The surgeon lays bone grafts across the exposed surface of each vertebra. These grafts will regenerate, grow into the bone, and fuse the vertebrae together. The bones are held in place with one or two metal rods held down with hooks and screws, helping to support the fusion of the vertebrae.I went through all this at age 13. But now with the onset of sevral more cronic illness complication from the surgery that once saved my life now slowly kill me.
Years later I began getting sicker and sicker by the time I was 20 my spine was degenerating causing horrible pain, I had to have my appendix removed, then gallblader went bad. We never dreamed these all had a common factor. Doctors just shook their head proclaiming :you are just so young for your body to be failing like this". Eventually it was discovered I have Lupus and severe arthritus. Lupus is an autoimmune disease, meaning that the body' s immune system mistakenly attacks healthy organs and tissue. Lupus can affect any part of the body, causing inflammation and damage in joints, skin, kidneys, heart, lungs, blood vessels, or the brain. More than 90% of people with lupus have skin rashes, often triggered by exposure to the sun, and about half have kidney and lung problems. Because lupus affects the joints, it is considered a rheumatic (arthritis) disease.
Upon this discovery things began to make sense. So doctors now knowing why began a body wide check up to see what all has been affected. One test was A bone mineral density (BMD) test measures how much calcium and other types of minerals are present in a section of your bone. Your health care provider uses this test, along with other risk factors, to predict your risk of bone fractures in the future and detect osteoporosis. Bone fracture risk is highest in people with osteoporosis. They found I indeed had osteoporosis at the age of 22. SO now My bones are weaking causing damage areas all over my body, but the most serious being in my spine. Now comes the arthritis/lupus, they see these damaged areas and my own imune system attacks. Eating at the damaged areas creating even more damage, which increases the area the lupus attacks. It is a vicious circle. I have now been treated with medication over 10 yrs. But they can only slow the illness there is no cure, and dure to my scoliosis and the metal rods in my back surgical treatment options are very limited.
The damage is so severe I was decared legally disabled by the age of 23. My only income is SSI. I have to support my children and I on 658.00 a month. Thank God the court issued my ex to pay my rent in lue of child support. I am asking for help to cover upcoming medical bills. In the last 14 months I have had 5 seperate kidney surgery. My right kidney is damaged and I will soon be having a 6th surgery. This one to remove damaged section of the tube that leads from the kidney to bladder. then they will reattach at a higher section of bladder. I will aslo be having several Jaw surgeries. Due to exposure to radiation, osteoperosis a excessive vomiting of stomache acid my teeth are breaking and falling out. The doctor needs to repair what they can and put in inplants for what they cant. This will slow the degineration of my jaw. Without this treatment my jaw is going to cave in. Currently I am only able to eat mushy foods. I have drastically lost weight and my body is stuggling to heal due to the stress, pain and infection. So I hunbly beg of you to help me 1.00 or 50.00 anything would help. These procedures will not only improve my quality of life but aslo help extend my time here on earth just a little ehile longer. I just want to be with my kids as long as I can.Whith each dollar you donate its like adding an hour to my life.....What would you give for a few more hours with the ones you love?

Please help me LIVE a little bit longer.

I lost weight but now my body is ruined.

Posted by Emmaroo on 2012-03-21 14:58:25

After the death of my father when I was 12 I started eating for comfort. I was badly bullied at school and eventually dropped out. By the time I was 20 I was 400lbs, unemployed with no prospects.

I decided to go to uni to become a counselor so I could help others, and set my mind to losing weight. I'm 25 now, and have recently hit my goal weight of 140lbs. I did this all through hard work and exercise.

Sadly, my skin never recovered from being so overweight. I hoped that when I lost weight I'd have the confidence to meet someone but I am even more ashamed of my body than ever. The doctor said I wouldn't be able to get any surgery to get rid of the loose skin on the NHS (ironically he said if I'd have gone the gastric band route at a cost to the NHS then I would probably have got funding for this.)

If anyone would like to help me by donating towards my surgery I would be forever grateful. I just want to be able to live a normal life.
I have chronic inflammation of a very important organ, and also a rare type of skin cancer that has been partially treated. Both of these were diagnosed in the past one year. However, further investigations would be needed with MRI to exclude very serious complications from this cancer. *(if there is a complication, that would almost certainly kill or leave me seriously maimed if not treated early.)

Basic info on me: I come from a former communist country now part of the EU. I went to high school abroad, as I was awarded a scholarship. Recently however, my parents have disowned me and right now I have nowhere to go, nobody to turn to. In my home country I have no insurance. I am in need of serious help, both financial and emotional.

The current cost of all treatments and investigations would amount to around 4000 USD in a proper hospital in an inexpensive country. please consider helping. I can be reached at the following address: frimurernye@gmail.com

Please can you help with medical treatment?

Posted by Tanyasm on 2012-02-05 03:58:14

Hi there,

I am a hardworking single parent of 2 children and ordinarily would not ask for help, however, I really don't know what else to do about my problem. Since my husband left 3 years ago I have struggled with money but due to Rheumatoid Arthritis, Fibromyalgia and various other painful ailments I have had to stop my second job and so my lack of money is a big issue. We get by and don't expect a lot i.e. no holidays in the sun or big TVs, however, I am now in a situation where I need money for medical treatment and have no savings.


When I was pregnant with my second son, who is now 10, I developed large cysts on my face which all burst and left scars and holes all over. As you can imagine these areterribly disfiguring. My self confidence is zero, especially when people stare and mention it. I do not want to go out of the house and I have stayed in the same job for 12 years as I am too uncomfortable to have an interview for another position. I have tried various things including strong chemical peels which have only made my skin worse. My doctor has told me that I can have treatment but it will cost a few thousand. Therefore, what I am asking for is help with not just making me look "normal" but about improving my life and that of my family. If I am fortunate enough to ever have treatment I would ideally like to find a better job and give my children the start they deserve. If you are able to help me I would be most thankful and forever grateful for your assistance.

Urgently need help

Posted by vlsvls on 2012-02-04 09:58:39

My begging request is serious enough for me to google for help. I am hoping somebody out there will help us.

Our house is presently freezing and I am in dire need of temporary help to get some fuel to keep us warm as well as my precious lil dog. We ran out of fuel and because we have no money to pay the gas company in back fuel, we cannot get any propane. To add inujury to insult, we are also behind on our property and school taxes. We have a house in Michigan that we were renovating by the skin of our teeth so that we can sell it for money, but just yesterday, we received a certified letter with a tax foreclosure on it.The property taxes on that house is behind. We cannot afford to foreclose on this house as it is our ticket to some money to help us with this house. We owe the contractor money for the work he has presently completed. He is now threatened to put a mechanic lien on the house. As you can see, our dire situation needs help as soon as possible.

We got behind in all bills because we ran out of money. My significant other was diagnosed with cancer in 2009 with multiple surgeries and since then, we have been going downhill. Utilizing our savings, selling everything we can possibly see. We live month to month now from social security and disability checks. I have no place else to turn as my own family does not have any money to help me nor does my significant other. Every place we turn to for help with this issue is a dead end. His disability pays the mortgage. We are truly strapped right at the moment. Is there anything you can do to help us out on this very cold day and with our property taxes? I can pay back whatever money is loan because I have a law suit settlement pending for a car accident I was involved in which required my having surgery. I just don’t know where else to turn. Please help me? I am begging. (I can’t get a settlement load because I am on a contingency basis). Our credit scores are not the greatest and that prevents us from getting any type of a loan.

If there is any way underneath the sun someone can come forward and help us, it would be greatly appreciated OR please guide us to a source where we can obtain a loan with the way our credit now stands. I have a judgment (which just recently surfaced) and now I am starting to pay that off at $50.00 per month which is an additional bill I cannot afford.

We have proof of anything I mentioned above.This is not a scam email.

p.s. I have also reached out to the Warren Buffet family foundation for some help per an email I sent and response I received. We are not guaranteed that we will get the help since they receive thousands of letters for help every day.

About to be homeless by 1/24 and am disabled

Posted by luvtravelgal on 2012-01-19 11:58:53

I am 57 years old, husband is 66. I am in the process of filing for SSI disability as I am fighting MS and am not able to work anymore. My husband is retired, fighting skin cancer, we have only his social security to live on right now.
Recently lost our apartment and are now staying in a cheap hotel. All of our belongings are in storage and we are praying that we have enough to at least keep the rent up on that, let alone keep a roof over our head as well right now.
We need some help to relocate. Since I have no health insurance and have had a recent hospital stay that wound up wiping out any money we had left, and left us with a lousy credit rating. My husband has a job opportunity in Raleigh NC, if we can get there and find some housing.
I'm a veteran and am hoping that maybe some other vets could help us out. We aren't asking for a free ride, just some help in getting us back on our feet until my disability claim kicks in.
We are more than willing to pay back any help we receive.

Education in Holistic Wellness

Posted by SpiritualStudent on 2012-01-04 05:58:16

I'm using BegsList to ask for donations to support my transition from a low-paying sales job to a meaningful career in the healing arts. I was blessed to be accepted into a highly selective program & upon graduation, I will have developed my inherent talents for holistic healing & wellness and begin serving others by offering various natural & organic-based therapies for skin issues & other ailments. While I will receive very limited loans via financial aid, they will not cover over $5000 of my tuition, not to mention living expenses. I am willing to work while in school, but would prefer to focus on my studies and offer my full energy to my clients when I begin my clinicals. I am a deeply spiritual & meditative young man who has earned a golden opportunity. I just need some help from compassionate, like-minded, & generous donors to allow my dream to manifest into reality. I am also a generous spirit who has offered many of my talents... writing, music, cooking, and others... free of charge to many people via blogging & other forums. I vow to use my education to help heal individuals, educate on holistic healing arts, & change the world in the most positive ways I possibly can. I will pay it forward. Of this, you can rest assured. If you have read thus far, thank you! You are likely a very intuitive & health-conscious individual. Please feel the energy of these words & allow my honesty, dedication to my life's purpose, & mostly your own heart- guide you in deciding whether or not to help me in the pursuit of my deepest desire: to truly be of service to others by gaining the expertise required to help them heal themselves. Thank you so much and all the Best for a Prosperous & Peaceful 2012!

Please read my true story i matter too...

Posted by AngelaB on 2012-01-01 15:58:41

To whom it may concern:

My name is Angela K. Baker. I live in Green Bay, Wisconsin and have been living with diagnosis of Systemic Lupus since I was fourteen years (I am now 34 DOB 06/16/1977). Although as a child, I knew there was something a little different about myself compared to my twin brother Johnathan. I could never run and play with the other children because my body just would not keep up with the other kids. It always felt like I had sandbags attached to me and I would pass out in the sunlight, I was always exhausted and my body cried out in pain. I just didn't know why. I can remember being like this all the way back to my kindergarten year. Not that my parents were bad people, it just seemed like they just didn't have anymore to give, there problems were so on the surface, (both of my parents are alcoholics, and my mother has had Multiple Sclerosis (MS) since I was born and as for my father, he spent a large part of my life locked away in the Wisconsin jail system (due to his own alcohol induced indescretions.) At fourteen I got a full-time job to pay for my medical bills and a part-time job working at a nursing home to help my family. I have always been stuborn and a fighter, but at this point in my life the fight has just about been exstinguished out of me and I have to admit that I need some help. Over the last twenty years I have been under anasthetic approximately 125 times. I am missing more parts than I have. I feel like an experiment gone wrong or a human pin coushon. I hope that at least some of my surgical suffering at least helped the surgeons learn something from my body...You see I have lived longer than anyone that they know of with this kind of Lupus. It usually manifesters in the late 30's or 40's not in children. My most recent operation was on June 9th 2011, to fix holes in my intestines that were accidentley left after my colon was removed (my colon exploded after it had been recected four times) Right now I have an Illyectomy system that does not work correctly, it leaks blood, bile, puss, fecal liquid ect. and the plastic appliances do not work on me because my skin is so sensative from the Lupus. My medical exspenses are so astronomical even with Medicare and I struggle every month to pay my basic needs (rent, public service water copays ect) I was forced to retire at 23 my body deceided it just couldn't do it anymore, even though I worked very hard to put myself through college so that I could have a decent job that I enjoyed. Thank God that it does not take much to feed me, because the state of WI says that I do not qualify for food stamps or medical assistance, I make $4.oo a month too much. I am not asking for large donations, I know the ecomomy is bad and we are all struggling. What I am asking that when you balance your checking account that you round up to the nearest dollar and please donate the change. My goal is to collect enough money to see a special surgeon at Freodert Hospital in Milwaukee Wisconsin. He would like to see if he can help me have some kind of quality of life and end some of the suffering that I have been enduring for a long time . I would be happy if I even received a little relief. I don't remember what it is like to feel healthy, everyone in this life deserves at least a shot at it... If I am given the help that I need, I fully intend to open my home again as a safe house ( I am not able to do that now because of the leaking illeostmy ) and I would love to a foster mom to any child who needs a good loving and stable home. The way I am right now is horrible ( I have not left my home in over six months excluding doctor appointments) I do realize that some people use these sites for frivilous things and for scamming people. All that that I can do is to give my word that I promise to pay it forward. In my life I have been through an extraordinary amount of human suffering and it is a miracle that I am alive still to tell my story, and for that I am truly greatful and I am here still for a reason. It is not so bad to live without certain basic human needs, it's the having too that is very heartbreaking.

To whom it may concern:

My name is Angela K. Baker. I live in Green Bay, Wisconsin and have been living with diagnosis of Systemic Lupus since I was fourteen years (I am now 34 DOB 06/16/1977). Although as a child, I knew there was something a little different about myself compared to my twin brother Johnathan. I could never run and play with the other children because my body just would not keep up with the other kids. It always felt like I had sandbags attached to me and I would pass out in the sunlight, I was always exhausted and my body cried out in pain. I just didn't know why. I can remember being like this all the way back to my kindergarten year. Not that my parents were bad people, it just seemed like they just didn't have anymore to give, there problems were so on the surface, (both of my parents are alcoholics, and my mother has had Multiple Sclerosis (MS) since I was born and as for my father, he spent a large part of my life locked away in the Wisconsin jail system (due to his own alcohol induced indescretions.) At fourteen I got a full-time job to pay for my medical bills and a part-time job working at a nursing home to help my family. I have always been stuborn and a fighter, but at this point in my life the fight has just about been exstinguished out of me and I have to admit that I need some help. Over the last twenty years I have been under anasthetic approximately 125 times. I am missing more parts than I have. I feel like an experiment gone wrong or a human pin coushon. I hope that at least some of my surgical suffering at least helped the surgeons learn something from my body...You see I have lived longer than anyone that they know of with this kind of Lupus. It usually manifesters in the late 30's or 40's not in children. My most recent operation was on June 9th 2011, to fix holes in my intestines that were accidentley left after my colon was removed (my colon exploded after it had been recected four times) Right now I have an Illyectomy system that does not work correctly, it leaks blood, bile, puss, fecal liquid ect. and the plastic appliances do not work on me because my skin is so sensative from the Lupus. My medical exspenses are so astronomical even with Medicare and I struggle every month to pay my basic needs (rent, public service water copays ect) I was forced to retire at 23 my body deceided it just couldn't do it anymore, even though I worked very hard to put myself through college so that I could have a decent job that I enjoyed. Thank God that it does not take much to feed me, because the state of WI says that I do not qualify for food stamps or medical assistance, I make $4.oo a month too much. I am not asking for large donations, I know the ecomomy is bad and we are all struggling. What I am asking that when you balance your checking account that you round up to the nearest dollar and please donate the change. My goal is to collect enough money to see a special surgeon at Freodert Hospital in Milwaukee Wisconsin. He would like to see if he can help me have some kind of quality of life and end some of the suffering that I have been enduring for a long time . I would be happy if I even received a little relief. I don't remember what it is like to feel healthy, everyone in this life deserves at least a shot at it... If I am given the help that I need, I fully intend to open my home again as a safe house ( I am not able to do that now because of the leaking illeostmy ) and I would love to a foster mom to any child who needs a good loving and stable home. The way I am right now is horrible ( I have not left my home in over six months excluding doctor appointments) I do realize that some people use these sites for frivilous things and for scamming people. All that that I can do is to give my word that I promise to pay it forward. In my life I have been through an extraordinary amount of human suffering and it is a miracle that I am alive still to tell my story, and for that I am truly greatful and I am here still for a reason. It is not so bad to live without certain basic human needs, it's the having too that is very heartbreaking.

Sincerely,

Angela K. Baker

help for unknown disease

Posted by beautiful-evolution on 2011-12-25 11:58:35

Gratitude to all who are on this site!
In 2009 doctors and many others witnessed tiny fluorescent white little puff balls, I call them (They are actually rice grain shaped), emerging spontaneously from my skin by the hundreds,maybe thousands. I have been ill most of my life on and off, for at least 15 years with migraines 25 or more out of 30 days much of spring through fall. When the disease(es) is/are fully active, it is sheer unending torture...
Mild examples are that I got stung by a bee, and was relieved to see it was bee, not the disease..the other day for about 5 minutes, it felt like I had a pinl sticking into my back, antibiotic final stopped it.the itching, stinging, is unreal, intense . I have kept it subdued through alternative cures a.d mixes after anti fungal with antibiotic, yet it still persists, and spring and summer heat make it overactive.
It seems to come with this rustcolored mold that is now everywhere in the little camper I am living in. This rust colored mold also grows kn and in me, creating ...well, ill leave out all the gorey detsils..My family helped me to buy this new, in hopes living in good clean air would help. We looked at the mold under a microscope, and like the fibers that come out ogle, it is fibrous, not mold- like
To add to this, we looked at a slide I made of the fiber in 2009, and one of the fibers turned into a slug like thing while in storage on the microscope, and there is this strange black ink- like looking circle around it all.
my doctors are at a loss, as they don't know of any test to identify this. The fibers just came back as unidentified plant material. It is strange to see them emerge..it just blips right out of the skin in less than a second.
because my camper is now covered in this, no matter how much I clean, every rain the camper gets covered.
Whatever this organism had done to my body, I itch, well all the time. it gets worse when I touch people or old books, I cannot sit on fabric, I have to bring plastic with me wherever I go..
Even my bed is covered in plastic
This organism fights other organisms, even acidophilus!
This and my severe migraines led to finally sucumbing to the acceptance of needing help, which came immediately through disability.o
My goal now is to identify this organism(or group of organisms. I have to get the camper de- termed. I am so sensitive, even staying in people's homes is out of the question now.
I basically require a simple box,ee batbroomand kitchen with no carpete amper drapes, furnishings, unless all 3, etc. And living in Los Angeles, only h budget, the camper is the best solution right now. Help getting me out of this camper, help paying the cost of a company that will remove the mold/ organism, and help with paying for tests to identify this are needed most any experts in any of these areas, I guess if you donate a penny and leave your contact information through PayPal, I would be so grateful!
i' m seeing the infectious disease doctor in January...again though, they don't test, it seems for what I have
So my requests.
if there are any mycologists,, geneticists, mold remediation specialists, (to get my camper less toxic)
And any funds to send out samples to be tested (one place, parasite testing.com calls this neurocutaneous syndrome..and may be able to identify.. it just a swab test is $120!)
And I need to get myself into a place that is healthy for me...eventually it will either be a new camper or studio rented somewhere. For now, until get the mold out of this camper, I will not sell it.
So this is a tidbit of my story...I was a healer, then got too sick! I now channel some of that into healing art
Any help is appreciated! I am much toover- sensitive for any direct healing, I do appreciate intent/prayers out to the grater energy, beyond even consciousness that we are all a part of. I must reflect back any direct energy channeled through, and specifically deny permission for this( learned the hard way)
Thank you for taking the time to read this, for being at this site in the first place
May the world bring to you all you truly feel in your heart right for you!
Namaste
Laura
PS. My computer has been down, and writing this on a cell phone. Much as i tried to go back, I could not correct the typos!

Sweetest Beagle in the world "Angel" Needs your help

Posted by beagleangel on 2011-12-24 17:58:51

Three years ago we adopted a beagle from the local SPCA. She was 27 pounds and had her ribs poking out. We got her upto a healthy happy 50 lbs. She has stomach issues, is timid.. But she is the sweetest girl. She comes up to everyone she meets sits and waits to be loved on. Doesn't bark at all. Wags her tail every time you talk to her. She runs to the door when it's time for a drive. Her favorite treat is beggin strips. Her favorite spot in the house is daddy's side of the bed.
She is in all matters our baby. I came home today to find her left shoulder swollen and she was having a hard time walking. I took her to the Vet ER. They shaved her and believe that she was bit by a spider. They are keeping her overnight. Giving her fluids, antibiotics, and pain medicine. Even though she is hurting, her tail is wagging.
The total vet bill is over 700.00 dollars so far. I will be picking her up in the morning. Over the past year we have pushed our credit cards to the limit. I was able to come up with the money. But now I don't have money for the rent. And the vet is expecting her to need more care over the next couple of days as the skin "sluffs" off.
My husband and I don't have any family to turn to. I have never begged for money. I've always been able to push through any of life's difficulties. I cried all evening that I'm unable to come up with any more money. Any help will go towards the 700 dollars that I've shorted my budget and to prevent bounced checks.

May God Bless you this Christmas.
